[Lou1se]

Good to see you back and almost recovered. Love the family pic! You can't possibly be a mum(& Gran??) to these girls you look way too young!

Those numbers are impressive despite your injuries and having been away for some time.

Saw your pic of a nicely ripped back in the O35 section. :THUMBSUP:

Nice work and enjoy the rest of your week

[stephanielynn76]

Glad to see you are back at it since your unfortunate fall. Awesome workout!

LOL, thanks so much! No hero here...just a simple chick who lifts and stuff.

I will be getting competition shredded, but no plans on a show. I'm doing a photo shoot at the end of April and I've got some hard work ahead for sure.



Time to go eat, have a great night ladies.

Hey Kimm!

I'm so sorry to hear about your fall! Glad there was nothing serious other then bumps and bruises Your family pic was too cute! The little one is getting so big, there's total family resemblance

I am very excited that you are doing the 12 week competition! I know that you've mentioned that you've added muscle mass since your last comp, can't wait to see your hard work pay off!

[Luvdogs]

Hi Kim, kids are adorable!

Love the posing vids. I'm going to do the 12 week transformation too. I'm doing my first figure competition May 25th so I figured (haha) since I'm dieting anyway, might as well!

The posing routines are part of why I chose Figure (besides, I don't think I have enough mass for bodybuilding). I love watching them, but actually doing one???? Although not wearing the 5" heals I just got sounds appealing!

I've never heard of "cobras" ... will youtube!

I LOVE close-grip bench... one of my fave exercises!

[stephanielynn76]

I just watched the posing vids. Damn woman you gots some swagger!

The posing routines are part of why I chose Figure (besides, I don't think I have enough mass for bodybuilding). I love watching them, but actually doing one???? Although not wearing the 5" heals I just got sounds appealing!

However... I'mma agree with this^^ LOL. I don't like wearing the heels but I'd rather do that than the posing routine! Now if they could incorporate some ass shakin' in there I might reconsider.

[penny0527]

So..... I must have fat fingered the unsubscribe button on your journal. Hope you are doing well.

Strong presses, Kim.

Oh hai Flex, nice to see you around these parts!

I got to the gym late today and it was packed. We have a lot of newbies and they come/play in groups. They wander around with no plan, sit all over random equipment doing nothing...they simply get in the way and this makes me rage.
